On 25 July 2013, Mr Pybus asked the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) for a Field Development Plan (FDP) Addendum report for unconventional gas development. The majority of the information was withheld on the basis that regulation 10(5)(e) of the EIRs applied, and the remainder was disclosed.
Following an investigation, the Commissioner agreed with SEPA that the information that had been withheld in the FDP Addendum report was excepted from disclosure under regulation 10(5)(e), which relates to the confidentiality of commercial or industrial information.
